Abstract:

Wearable technology to augment traditional approaches are increasingly being added to the arsenals of treatment providers. Wearable technology generally refers to electronic systems, devices, or sensors that are usually worn on or are in close proximity to the human body. Wearables may be stand-alone or integrated into materials that are worn on the body. What sets medical wearables apart from other systems is their ability to collect, store, and relay information regarding an individual’s current body status to other devices operating on compatible networks in naturalistic settings.

Abstract:

AbstractThe escalating adoption of wearable technology for health data monitoring has led to the real-time aggregation of personal information. This phenomenon has fuelled heightened apprehensions about data security and privacy, given the storage, processing, and sharing of personal health data by corporations. Regulatory frameworks have been enacted to safeguard individual privacy rights, as exemplified by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This research paper, by Ms Varda Mone and Ms Fayazullaeva Shakhlo, offers an overview of extant literature on privacy apprehensions concernin

Abstract:

Wearable devices have potentials for monitoring elderly patients’ health. Many efforts have been made to encourage its use among this population. However, not all of them are succeeding in improving the wearables’ use. In this study, we explored the impact of patient-centered practice in healthcare on wearable devices’ use and the role of this technology use in improving patients’ mental health. We found that a majority of 84.96% of the elderly people who responded to the surveys reported using wearable devices in the last 12 months to monitor or track health activity.
